E 125 Globalization: Unravelling the New Capitalism

Globalization is the word of the moment‚Äîbut what does it mean? What does globalization involve? Is it leading to a more just, stable and prosperous world, or widening the gap between rich and poor?

This study explores secular views of globalization before looking at the range of Christian commentators. It then sets the issues against the biblical story of creation and redemption in order to offer a Christian perspective. It is a valuable guide to the practical, ethical and theological issues involved.
